About GovEx

GovEx helps governments use data to make informed decisions and improve people’s quality of life.

In April of 2015, Johns Hopkins University launched GovEx to support What Works Cities, a Bloomberg Philanthropies initiative that helps cities use data and evidence to tackle their most pressing challenges. Since that time, GovEx has worked with more than 410 governments around the world, and shared a wealth of information about best data practices and policies.

Our team of proud “data nerds” are passionate about government and believes it can accomplish great things for residents when given the tools and skills to use data to inform the best decisions. We know the more government can collect, manage, and analyze quality data, the more clearly City Halls can see and know what’s needed and deliver better results.
